i suggest a new potm thread for comic relief. people are way too uptight around here lately. occasionally it's nice to watch people let their guard down. i would like to suggest a centralized location to record these moments since they don't tend to qualify under potm's common denominator of "profound". macbeth had his gatekeeper; now evc has this thread.

probably not wise
I'm not convinced this is a good idea. The person who is nominated because he/she is "way too uptight around here lately" might not find it very amusing. And then this joke, at a members expense, is listed on Google and other search engines. Okay, call me a killjoy. Maybe another admin will think differently.

If you STILL think us too uptight, e-mail me and we can humor each other! I don't think the humor P.O.T.M. is a good idea, though. We are a specialized forum with a Coffee House to unwind in. Edit: I am probably too uptight, but maybe another Admin will see it in a lighter way! This message has been edited by CoonDawg, 12-09-2005 12:56 AM

Re: probably not wise
that's not what i meant at all. i mean that people nominate people when they break down and say something funny.

I'd like to ask brenna to clarify this. I read it as her wanting it to be for intentionally funny posts - those one-liners that Moose periodically gets all pissy about. I'd be all in favour of this. I agree with nwr about not wanting one for ridiculing arguments that people have put forward or showing up mistakes they have made. yes mangy, that's exactly what i meant. sometimes these are absolute gems.

Post your first nomination here
Post your first nomination as a message in this thread. That will give us a better idea on what you intend.

nom number the first
well. since i know where it is and i don't have to go hunting for anything... at risk of seeming self-important, i think this is a reasonable representation. there are probably much better ones. sometimes threads just go funny places. my little joke from the gilgamesh thread.

Re: nom number the first
Sorry to be fussy, but I don't like self-nominations.

Re: nom number the first
*stabs eye* it's supposed to be comic relief and you're making it all way too serious. This message has been edited by brennakimi, 12-09-2005 03:46 PM
